I have just you tubed Reece and he is a very talented lad. But who on earth are the woman judges? Is the blond one Izzy from neighbors? No idea who the english chick is, unless she is a very scary spice?
Cass, I hope L is feeling better about the dog. I dread the day Miss A comes across something like that.

Arte you're bang on the money. Blond dizzy is Natalie Bassingthwaite (I don't really know who she is but i think she was on a soapie then made it as a singer) and yes the other one is Scary Spice. Hilarious line up, really.

I forgot to say what we're doing for Christmas. We've told DD1 it's going to be a tightarse christmas, but we've secretly purchased a fantastic and verrrrah niiiice lappy for her (which we were going to anyway so she's got something for her highschool work, and it was a total bargain) and E is getting a purple moon chair, and maybe a cd player. And a couple of books, dvds etc that i've found cheap over the year and stashed in the cupboard and maybe some new undies or pjs (ie things they needed anyway but I'll wrap them up and call them a pressie LOL).

nat bass is so freaking dumb. seriously, i thought she was drunk last night! anyways, looking forward to tonight!!! lol
xmas the boys are getting a bike each and a big wooden thomas set each. that is all so far. might add a couple more small things each but that is the big stuffthey recently got their cubby and a leap pad each so i think that should do them.
we are heading up to dh's parents holiday house on the south coast after xmas (they won't be there, don't worry! they are in the uk) so there will lots of small beach outings and walks with the new bikes. bliss!

I've got my eye on an ironing board the same as K has borrowed about 4 times from the toy library, but it depends on if I can get a drying rack as well (she can't do one without the other apparently). Will look this weekend when we are in Canberra.
Wiggles this weekend - she's pretty excited.
K seems very worried about death. Before her birthday she was telling everything that when she turned 4 she was turning 4 and wouldn't be 5. We thought it was because she thought being 5 meant going to school and that it was Daddy's big school. So we explained that, but now she is still saying she won't turn 5 because that is getting old and she might die. We've tried saying how old Pa is and he's still going, so not sure what to say next.
Major discipline issues here at the moment. Little things just turn into major issues. We've got 4 days in a row of no TV and the bathroom (time out spot) is getting quite a workout!

Cally, that is a hard one. I would just keep harping on about how kids are young and have to grow into grown ups and then get old before they die and that takes 80/90 years. I believe her behavior might be what is referred to as The Feral Fours! W has just had a dose of ragbag. Clearing up a bit but he is being really rough with A and knocking her over etc when no one is looking. He also has minimal empathy and if she falls and cries he does the boost in the opposite direction!
MD and G, you will be happy with the x factor outcome! I only guessed Scary spice because she did a performance on last years x factor - those boobs are enormous and surely not real! Not sure why they showed Aussie x factor last year and the U.S one this year.

Cally, maybe she doesn't understand the difference between old and older? She's getting older, not old. And maybe introduce the notion of very VERY old = dying. Even old people live a very long time until they are very VERY old. Might help. Also, explain that when she goes to school she'll still be a child for a very long time and eventually a teenager, and then a long time after that she'll be a grown up and then a long long time after that she'll be the same age as mummy and daddy...etc. BTW I remember developing an awareness of death around that age (and possibly was a little confused about it too). We've had a bit of ratbagginess too, I think it was a ratty growth spurt thing because she's so much better now.
Arte, Scary just had a baby! Hence the boobs. She was pregnant during the auditions, then there was a gap when she had the bub, then they started the show. They had one episode where she got her husband who is something important (producer? record co exec? something very very rich) and it was the weirdest thing - they didn't look like they were on the same page at all - hard to imagine they were happily married at all. Anyway VERY happy with the outcome!
Ginger, when's L's surgery scheduled? How are you going? Your holiday house holiday sounds lovely and something beautiful to look forward to.
Thinking of putting the chrissy tree up this weekend but it's going to be a busy one so not making any promises to the kids yet.
